Re: 4WD H and L system problem?

I don't know about GV's but I once working on my SJ & i accidently slipped it into 4wd high & then took it for a spin, on the road it was awful I was driving along and it almost felt like it was crabbing sideways the ride was so harsh and awkward, the road holding was bad & it felt real...

Re: 4WD H and L system problem?

Hi Guys, Quick update on this. I went shooting up my mates farm today and purposley went on an area filled with thick deep(ish) muck. Tried to pull out and of course no chance, so engaged 4WD H and just as you said, no hard pulling steering etc and she just pulled straight and smooth out of the mud!...

Re: What music system do I have in my GV?

Thanks again for the great info Darrell. I have thought about maybe buying one of those DVD pop out screen player thingys so I can watch a film or whatever while waiting for the GF, (she's a Staff Nurse and they NEVER finish on time almost every day and I'm often outside the Hospital for 30-60 mins ...

Re: Our GV V6 2.5 a description

The 413 perhaps? 410's have 1.0's, 413s have 1.3's. And the safety concerns were drummed up by an American magazine that, it turned out later, deliberately changed the test conditions to try to tip over the SJ. They did the same thing to the Pajero a few years later, and eventually got sued by seve...

Re: Our GV V6 2.5 a description

Sj410 by any chance? The best SJ :doublethumbs: You guys must have driven it like a loon to roll it alot :hahaha: Yes, it was probably SJ410 then. It was so many years ago as I'm 50 now and I must have driven it when was between 17-19 I think. I do know that it had a 1.3 petrol engine that always s...

Re: What music system do I have in my GV?

You found it Darrell!! Thanks mate as I did have a search and found nothing. I have to say that the fact it's a real budget number really surprises me as it certainly doesn't "sound" budget at all. Maybe those speakers that Suzuki fitted are even better than I thought, or it's just a cheap...

What music system do I have in my GV?

Hi All, I don't know if the music system is a standard Suzuki fitting, but my guess is it's not. I was out in it earlier getting GF from work so I took some photos on my phone of the CD Player and searched online when I got home. Unfortunately, I can't find a single reference online to the number/na...

Thanks for the welcome :D . This is a good forum I can tell already and very helpful for those of us new...

Re: Our GV V6 2.5 a description

Can you unlock all the doors from the passenger side key switch. If you can this means all the doors including the drivers have a lock motor. If so you can buy a unit for £20 to give you keyless entry. I believe there is little wiring involved. Hi Darrell, The key opens all doors with one turn in t...

Our GV V6 2.5 a description

Hi All, Well, after a pile of carefull research and having previously owning a Nissan Terrano 2, 2.7 TDI which caused no end of trouble, (mostly bad tinworm underneath, but lots more problems too) we wanted another 4x4 but one a lot more reliable. It seems that the Suzuki range fits the bill accordi...
